In a world with no internet...

    Like probably most of DP members, I live, work, play and basically breathe internet 24/7... It has come to a point where I really wonder what would my life look like if there was no internet, how would my spare time look like... keeping in touch with friends... and that sort of stuff.
    So, would you indulge me? how would your spare time look like, if tomorrow you wake up and there is no internet, and its not coming back?
    I would imagine a withdrawal period... :) and then what?

    Well you will probably never be on a deserted island either, but you probably did answer the question what would you bring there anyway :)

    In a world with no internet... Things would change, as well as our way of life. Suddenly everyone would read books instead of pulling out their devices. Checking the weather, traffic and disaster alerts would be restricted to the tv/radio. People wouldn't be able to meet online anymore. Honestly, life would be different. At this point, IMO, the internet runs us, until we "try" to take control of it again.

    Wouldnt stuff just be like all other decades, up to internet was invented?

    Cant see the world coming to and end, people would probably just be more social, have to do real work etc :]

    That's terrible! Say, what do you use the lines for anyway, and exactly how does the internet get you these lines?

    At this point it would be like asking what the world would be like without electricity or indoor plumbing.

    It would return to the 1990s and before. There would be more racism and misunderstanding of ideas.
